“Roy, you are my source of great information, but you are also my source of great lending. I welcome always sending you business because, you know what you are doing, my clients come away very happy, and we get the transaction closed. Thank you for being the true professional that you are.”

Sean Brooks, Linx Realty Group
Myrtle Beach, SC South Carolina

“I plan to basically only recommend you and HomeBridge to all of my clients moving forward. Your process and communication was unlike any other lender I have ever worked with. And to me, communication, especially with the client, is key. You allowed the client to have an even better experience as a result. All in all, it was a great transaction from start to finish. Looking forward to helping many more clients in similar fashion!”

Greg Smith, Coldwell Banker Chicora
Myrtle Beach, SC South Carolina

“Roy Dunn recently closed a loan for one of my listings. The borrower had a couple of issues along the way, but Roy was able overcome their issues. Even though they were not my clients, he kept me up to date on a consistent basis using his loan tracking system. This system keeps you up to date on an item by item basis as the loan works its way through the process. This is great for realtors to stay informed without having to track down the answers during the loan process. I would recommend Roy to handle any of my loans going forward.”

Stephanie Hribar, D.R. Horton
Myrtle Beach, SC

“I will enjoy working with you as a lender with future buyers!”

David Hyatt, Century 21 Thomas
North Myrtle Beach, SC, SC South Carolina

“You guys are machines! Keep up the great work...and yes, you are great to work with.”

Maria F.
Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

“Thank you! We always said you performed miracles for us and you are still doing it.”

Johnnie G.
Myrtle Beach, SC South Carolina

“NOBODY in this town could have done what you did for us on this loan. HomeBridge reinstated the entitlement,
worked with seller paid closing costs, installed a new roof, and followed the direction of a seasoned underwriter by asking for guidance up front. HomeBridge should be proud of its name on this one. In a day where our Veterans are so forgotten and their service taken for granted, you and the whole Homebridge team really bridged the gap on this one. You worked with a Veteran to get him and his family into an affordable home, without the added financial drain of facing a new roof down the road. Erma Bombeck once said this, "when I stand before God at the end of my life, I want Him to say, you used every bit of the talent I gave you." That is precisely how I felt about this case. Thank you Roy, for your patience, knowledge and willingness to work the established guidelines to accomplish this transaction. The services of a Veteran were celebrated with the actions in his best interest.”

Rafik M.
Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

“Roy and his team were very informative and easy to work with! The process was self-explanatory!”

Frank T.
Matthews, North Carolina

“Roy was very responsive...excellent service! When we buy another property in SC, we will use HomeBridge and Roy.”

Russ Beattie
Myrtle Beach, SC South Carolina

“Thank you Roy Dunn and team! I started my mortgage with my own bank because I thought it would be easier that way. My realtor was strong in her recommendation of Roy and I went along. I am so happy that I did! Roy, Kelly and Elisa were incredible every step of the way. They answered my questions, I always knew what was going on with my loan, and we closed on time. Much less stress than I'd been led to believe by friends. I will recommend Roy and HomeBridge to all of my friends needing help!”

Kathie B.
Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

“I want to thank you and your group for the wonderful way our closing was handled. The professionalism of you and your team, was beyond what anyone would or could expect. It doesn't seem possible that all of that work was done in 30 days. Dave and I just wanted to thank you all again for everything.”

Al M.
Surfside Beach, SC South Carolina

“Roy, thank you for making this such a painless process.”

JoAnne V.
Whitmore Lake, MI

“The entire process was flawless, and we know everyone worked hard on our behalf. You made our “one day” dream come true. We are so happy! We could not have done this without you! Really! We will refer you as often as possible – every time.”

Sandy Sanders, Re/Max Southern Shores
Myrtle Beach, SC

“I'm lucky to have you on my side and as my support! Together we are an awesome team!”

Greg M.
Myrtle Beach, SC

“Thank you so much for your honesty, communicating with me all along, and answering my many questions. I will certainly recommend you to others.

Johnnie Green, Re/MAX Southern Shores
Myrtle Beach, SC

“I am delighted to endorse Roy Dunn, with HomeBridge Financial Services, Inc., as a Loan Officer who is a Realtor’s Best Ally. Roy answers his phone, EVEN on weekends. He stays totally abreast of changes in investor requirements, and, is my first contact with a, “can you do this on a VA or FHA loan” question. It is a joy to have Roy in control of my clients; I can relax knowing that he is going to give them the best service in every area of loan processing/closing, AND keep all parties informed at every stage.
You do business with people who give service and results, and that is Roy Dunn. I trust him with my clients before I put them in my car. His pre-qualification is their ticket to ride, because everyone is on board the train at that point. Because of him, closings are smooth, and calm and informed clients become referrals for us both.
Thank you Roy; your wealth of experience and proven results time after time is why I count on you. Every client is my # 1 client when I work with them………why would I entrust them to anyone but THE #1 Lender...Roy Dunn.”

Lori
Myrtle Beach, SC

“Roy Dunn was an absolute pleasure to work with. I was referred to Roy by my realtor and even though I was hesitant to call him at first, it turned out to be the greatest decision I could have made in regards to our dream of home ownership. I left a message on Roy's voicemail and he returned my call very promptly. He was very understanding as I explained the financial situation of my husband and myself. After a brief initial assessment, he sent me a link to a 3 minute mortgage application and I was pleasantly surprised to hear back from him the same day that I was approved! I completed the 3 minute mortgage application online on Feb 1st and we closed on our new home on March 9th! Roy and his team were great every step of the way. Elisa Griffin was so helpful and patient with me throughout the entire process. And I sincerely appreciate all of Eileen Ward's help as well! Overall, working with HomeBridge was convenient and easy. I have already recommended Roy's services to a friend and will continue to do so!”

Mike Cole, Dockside Realty
Myrtle Beach, SC

“Roy Dunn does a fantastic job and has been making life easy when it comes to getting a true picture of a prospect or client's buying ability. He is a straight shooter, and if he can't get the loan done, he will tell you so that you don't waste your time with that prospect. You'll find his customer service is second to none!”

Kristina Whalen, Paralegal
Myrtle Beach, SC

“I just called our client Steven to give him his final closing figures -he is so excited!!! As you know, Steven is a first time home buyer and this was a new and stressful experience for him..... but, you all have been great to work with and any time we have clients or agents call asking for a lender referral we will definitely be recommending Roy Dunn and HomeBridge.”

Sean Kort, Realtor, Weichert Southern Coast
Myrtle Beach, SC

“Amazing job, entire REMN staff! You picked up the fumble by another National Lender (there's a stagecoach in their logo!), approved the FHA loan and will close it within 24 days from the start. That is amazing work in this current financing world. I know Marco and Alesa are very excited. I wanted to thank you for all your hard work and professionalism. ”

Nettie Hutter, Realtor, Century 21
North Myrtle Beach, SC

“Roy, you are my hero!!!”

Misty Greenway, Realtor, Beach Realty Group
Myrtle Beach, SC

“As a Realtor we often hear from our clients, "I have a friend that's in the mortgage business, and they told me they can give me a great interest rate, so I appreciate your referral but I'm going to give my friend the opportunity." Weeks go by, everyone is stressed to the max, as we see this friend crumble in their inability to complete the mortgage process. Finally, it's Roy to the rescue! I am convinced his entire team is some type of Lending Super Hero! We were told that lending on this condo was impossible, but not for Roy! He renewed my client's faith in the mortgage process, and just as he said he would, he closed the loan! Now, my clients have a family vacation spot and Roy is their true friend that's in the mortgage business! Thank you, Roy, for your professionalism, knowledge, and the courteous nature you show my clients. You are a true business partner, one that always has my back, and one I can count on 100% of the time! ”

Brenda Ferrand – Owner/Broker of Real Estate Firm
Myrtle Beach, SC

“Roy Dunn, you are a Super Star! ”

Jim

“I wanted to drop you a note to say a simple "Thank You" for your hard work in getting my loan completed. You delivered on your promise and I wanted to be sure you knew I appreciated your help. Please let me know if I can do anything.”

Joe
Atlanta, GA

“I wanted to thank you and your group for the great work in getting my loan done earlier this year for my investment property in North Myrtle Beach. We could not have made it happen without the hard work of your complete team. We had originally gotten my mortgage approved, but then the short sale ran into a snag and we could not close as soon as expected. Your team really came through in the end as the short sale was finally approved but we only had 8 or 10 days to finalize and resubmit our loan and your team made it all happen (at the end of a month on top of that). ”

Julia
North Myrtle Beach, SC

“Although the process of purchasing my first home was exhausting, Mr. Dunn made the mortgage part easier by answering my emails promptly, getting information to me quickly and not rushing me when I met with him in his office with a million questions. ”

Will
Charlotte, NC

“Roy Dunn and his very professional staff led us through the application process. Our approval came within days; I'm sure in large part to the thoroughness of the HomeBridge team. As a result, we are now enjoying our family getaway at the beach. Should we need this type of service in the future, we will be going back to HomeBridge.”

“Roy Dunn with HomeBridge is very professional and very knowledgeable in every aspect of the real estate financing industry. I have known and worked with Roy for many years. Over the years, my clients have used Roy.”

Nancy Terrell, Realtor, Century 21 Thomas
North Myrtle Beach, SC

“When it comes to clients needing mortgage information, Roy Dunn is my \"Go To Guy\"". I know I can rely on him to contact my clients quickly and efficiently. He gets the job done! "”
